2013: Listed as a starter at defensive end on
the preseason depth chart.

2012: Started Eastern’s first three games
of the season at defensive end, but then played as a backup in
EWU’s regular defensive line rotation in the final 11 games.
He was second on the team with five sacks to rank 13th in the Big
Sky. He played a big role in Eastern’s unconventional, 27-24
come-from-behind victory over second-ranked Montana State
(10/13/12). The Bobcats out-gained EWU 375-211, but EWU managed to
take the lead for good on a blocked punt by Dylan Zylstra that was
recovered for a touchdown by Day. Just 59 seconds later, an
interception by Jordan Tonani was returned 21 yards for a touchdown
to give EWU a 10-point advantage it didn’t surrender. Day had
1 1/2 sacks in his starting debut at an end position against Idaho
(8/30/12). He also had sacks versus Montana State (10/13/12), UC
Davis (11/10/12) and Illinois State (12/8/12), plus a half-sack
against Wagner (12/1/12). He had a career-high six tackles versus
Illinois State, as he had 12 tackles and three sacks in a trio of
playoff games.

2011: Day had his first career sack and forced
fumble in EWU’s opener at Washington (9/3/11), and had
another sack the following week versus South Dakota (9/10/11) when
he had a season-high three tackles. He missed the Sacramento State
game (10/22/11) because of an ankle injury.

2010: Redshirted. Was selected as
Eastern’s Defensive Scout Team Player of the Year. Was
selected as the team’s defensive scout team player of the
week three times.

HS: Graduated from Skyline HS in 2010. Named by
the Seattle Times as a “White Chip” selection
as one of the top 100 prospects in the state of Washington. He was
a first team All-KingCo League Crest Division selection as both an
offensive guard and as a defensive lineman. Day helped Skyline to a
40-2 record as a three-year letter winner, including a trio of
state titles. He had seven sacks as a senior to lead the league.
Was the defensive player of the game and had his team’s hit
of the game when he had a pair of sacks as Skyline lost 28-25 to
Oaks Christian of California and Washington-bound quarterback Nick
Montana on Sept. 18, 2009. Skyline won the State 4A title with a
45-21 romp past Ferris to finish the season 12-2. Skyline also won
the 2008 title with a perfect 14-0 record, defeating Issaquah 20-15
in the title game. Skyline was 14-0 and won the state title in his
sophomore season as well. His Eagle teammates Jase Butorac
(’10). Nick Washburn (’10) and Nic Sblendorio
(’13), as well as former Eagle Tyler Washburn (’08),
also graduated from Skyline.
